There is certainly no limit to what one can experiment with. It's that experimentation that I find to be the most fun. Recently, I Raku fired a piece,
hated it, covered it with a cone 10 white clay slip, dried it,
covered it with another Raku glaze, fired it, hated it, sand blasted
it .... and loved it (shown here).
